Example #1 :

# Ruby code for BigDecimal.remainder() method

# loading library
require 'bigdecimal'

# declaring bigdecimal
a = 42.1**13

# declaring bigdecimal
b = -BigDecimal("10")

# declaring bigdecimal
c = -(22 ** 7.1) * 10

# a
puts "BigDecimal a remainder b : #{a.remainder(b)}\n\n"

# b
puts "BigDecimal b remainder c : #{b.remainder(c)}\n\n"

# c
puts "BigDecimal a remainder c : #{c.remainder(a)}\n\n"

Output :

BigDecimal a remainder b : 0.0

BigDecimal b remainder c : -0.1E2

BigDecimal a remainder c : -33978318848.0

Example #2 :

# Ruby code for BigDecimal.remainder() method

# loading library
require 'bigdecimal'

# declaring bigdecimal
a = 12**12 - 27

# declaring bigdecimal
b = BigDecimal('10')-(22 ** 7.1) ** 10

# declaring bigdecimal
c = BigDecimal('-3')

# a
puts "BigDecimal a remainder b : #{a.remainder(b)}\n\n"

# b
puts "BigDecimal b remainder c : #{b.remainder(c)}\n\n"

# c
puts "BigDecimal a remainder c : #{c.remainder(a)}\n\n"

Output :

BigDecimal a remainder b : 0.8916100448229E13

BigDecimal b remainder c : -0.2E1

BigDecimal a remainder c : -0.3E1
